20 Funny / True #PreTwitter Tweets

This morning Twitter was abuzz with a new trend. The brilliant folks from Activation Media had an idea to get #PreTwitter hashtag trending, and South Africans embraced it fully. The hashtag trended nationally in South Africa by mid-day today. Quite impressive and a very cool concept if you ask me.

The #PreTwitter hashtag is all about stating what you did before you had Twitter. Some very creative Tweets came up. Here are 20 of the funny / true ones I spotted during the course of today:

“#PreTwitter I had to look for nice sayings on google!” @Seductive_devil

“#Pretwitter a handle was used to open doors..” @King_Kanete

You can follow Activation Media via @ActivationZA on Twitter. It’s amazing how this micro-blogging service has changed the way we communicate via our mobile phones and the internet. Twitter already has 300 million users globally (more than 1 million in South Africa) and its not getting any smaller. Still think that its useless? Running Wolf’s Rant would like to hear your thoughts about the #PreTwitter hashtag and about Twitter and general, so feel free to comment on this post.
